The Wrath Of Ambar duology by Tanaz Bhathena consists of Hunted by the Sky (2020) and Rising Like a Storm (2021). Set in the fictional kingdom of Ambar, the series follows a girl born with a birthmark that marks her as the prophesied destroyer of the ruling king. She must master her magic and join a resistance movement to fulfill her destiny.
Bhathena builds a rich fantasy world that draws heavily on South Asian history, mythology, and culture. The magic system, political intrigue, and social structures of Ambar all have roots in Indian traditions, giving the duology a distinctive setting within the young adult fantasy genre. The two-book format keeps the story focused and tightly paced.
